okay so i'm fuming i just went to urban outfitters website and they have this line called "urban renewal" and it's supposed to be ethical or sustainable or whatever has become in fashion to be now and i just would like to say. there is no reason for that shit to be so expensive. i literally can make better looking stuff with my own two hands in a single day. and i'm not saying it doesn't look good because it does and that's why i'm angry because it's expensive and I can't afford it even though I love the way it looks, but also this is a psa if any of you all see it and like it:

go to the thrift store. go to goodwill or your local one or go to depop or threadup or ebay and find some really really cheap stuff that's ugly. and make it better. remake the things you found into (ideally) a couple pieces that are more unique than whatever uo is up to. because it was made by you. and if you don't know how to sew or how to chose stuff that will be able to be turned into something cool or don't know how to bleach or whatever dm me and i will literally help you. i will give you a tutorial. urban renewal looks the way it does for a reason, and that reason is incredibly easy to replicate!

this way its also more customizable to your own aesthetic -- you can make something dark academia or cottagecore or whatever you want.

a color scheme, $10, and a trip to goodwill, and the ability to sew are all you need.

Season 3 ending

So... It's been almost a week since the last episode, almost a week trying to wrap my head around the end of the show, trying to manage my feelings about it all.

It's hard to end up feeling the complete opposite of nearly everyone on my dash but I've come to terms with the fact that I didn't love the ending. I didn't love this last episode. (I shouldn't feel ashamed or weird for saying so but you guys loved it so much that I feel a bit like an outsider right now 😓)

I haven't been a fan of the show for as long as most of you, but it means so much to me. These characters carved a place in my heart and in my head, and they've made me happy for months now. They helped me get through some stuff, made me discover some amazing artists, meet even more amazing people through this fandom. And I loved the story. Even in its darkest, saddest parts, I loved it. I was invested.

I love Wilhelm and Simon, together and separately. They mean so much to me. And I loved season 1 and 2. It made me happy, and sad, and frustrated, and exalted. But overall, I trusted the show and I was not disappointed.

Season 3 was a lot. I liked the first 5 episodes. I can't say that I loved everything about them: I was not expecting things to get so hard for Simon, with no reprieve in sight. I was not worried about Wilmon being endgame (I know it was a big stress for the fandom but honestly I never doubted that they were endgame), but I was wondering how the show would go about tying all the knots it made (I should even say all the knots it added during this last season).

(Under a read more because it's a bit long and I don't want to bother those who don't wanna read more of my frustrated thoughts ^^')

And unfortunately the last episode was a huge let down for me. Yes, it's partly because nothing I was hoping for actually happened, but mostly, it's because the choices they made did not feel very satisfying to me: ⁕ Simon was barely there. We went from him being bullied online/offline non stop for 5 episodes to almost nothing. It makes 0 sense to me. ⁕ Kristina suddenly feeling better: she was having break down upon break down for an entire season, could barely look at her son or even just talk normally and all of a sudden she's back, smiling and agreeing to everything Wilhelm says? I'm sorry but I don't buy it? Where did this Kristina hid during the entire show? ⁕ Wilhelm deciding to not be king, talking for 3min to his parents about it, them agreeing and him running into the sunset with Simon. I'm sorry, what?? I love that they end up together of course, but it makes very little sense to me? It won't change any of the issues they had this season? They're still gonna be famous? And bullied online/offline? (Probably even more so now?). I'm not obviously saying that Wilhelm staying in line to become king was the only or the best solution, but I wanted more from this storyline. I wanted to believe it. And right now, what we got? It feels a bit cheap (and I feel bad for saying that because the ending was cute and romantic and all, but it felt too disconnected from the rest of the show for me ><)

And apart from these few points, the big issue I had with this episode was: The Angst. So that might be a me-problem, but it was too much for my poor little heart (I haven't rewatched the episode yet, and I'm not sure I'll be able to anytime soon ><). I spent like 40min of the episode with a huge knot in the stomach because the heartbreak between Simon and Wilhelm was too much to handle for me. I can see how it was beautifully made, that having lots of throwbacks to the previous seasons, the Wille song, all of that was great cinematography. But it was just too much for me. I got in the season spoiler-free but for this episode? During the lake scene I had to take a break and check online if they were actually endgame because it was starting to actually give me a stomachache. So yeah, this part might be me being too sensitive but I did not like that they made me see them fight for each other for 2 seasons and 5 episodes, but then just giving up for 40min before finally running back to each other during the last 10min. It was just too much sadness for me ><

So yeah, maybe my expectations were too high? But I feel sad, and kinda cheated. Too many things are left wide opened. Too many things make zero sense to me. And of course I'm happy we got our Wilmon endgame, but I'm less happy about how it happened.

It's a bit hard being on Tumblr right now and seeing everyone who thought it was the perfect episode >< And I don't want to "yuck anyone's yum" (as the saying goes), but I still wanna be able to share my thoughts! I probably won't write super angry/unhappy/complaining posts about the season/the finale, but I still wanna be able to chat about it. I did see some posts on my dash from people not being entirely satisfied with this ending so it's a bit comforting. And I hope we can share some nice headcanons, or just discussions about different plot points.

But yeah, I guess that's why I haven't really been active this week! Trying to get over the double heartbreak of the end of the show + being disappointed with the ending! I'm gonna come back though! I miss hanging out here, I just need to strengthen my heart a little bit more :p Gonna get back to writing about my thoughts episode by episode for this season (I can't promise I can rewatch the last one though 😖 It might take me a bit of time to get there). And I want to continue my song analysis of the show!! I'm not even done with season 2 yet, I have some work to do there ^^

So see you back here very soon 😘

#young royals #wilmon #prince wilhelm #simon eriksson #yr season 3 #young royals ending #it's hard to feel negative about something everyone seemed to love ><#I still have a lot to say #to try to express #I have a hundred emotions about this finale episode #all mixing and fighting in my poor brain #and it's hard to put them into words #but I'm gonna try #because I think it'll help me feel better about this whole experience #and I did like some things!!#not everything was bad!!#lots of plot points were actually great!!#(Sara for example!!)#but yeah #a lot to process #(and I'm super up to chat about it all if anyone else feels a bit or a lot disappointed too ^^)#(and thank you Lisa for being there to lament with me 💜)#(also yeah me watching gåsmamman this week was clearly a way to not think too much about young royals ^^')#but on another note #I got my Omar concert tee shirt and it made me super happy #and I still love the cast #to the moon and back #and I'm excited for their next projects #and and and #that's too many tags

really hope they come back.

(emotional ramblings and the original drawing i did of them under the cut)

for the life of me i couldn't figure out why hearing orym and fearne died was affecting me so badly (i'm still on ep 32 lol). i didn't sleep, i was crying almost every few hours, no appetite and i was so confused as to why. i didn't react like this with molly! then i realized it's cause fearne and orym are part of exu and exu pulled me out of a bad place.

i remember when i decided to listen to exu. i was in one of the worst places mentally i have been in years and choosing to listen to it was dicey for many personal reasons. but i took the risk and i listened to exu and fell in love with the crown keepers (fearne, orym and opal in particular). and after that i slowly but surely pulled myself out of that hole. hearing two of my favorite members of the crown keepers were in campaign 3 was the greatest news ever for me. i know they'll never see this but just in case they do: thanks liam and ashley (and all the crown keepers as well as aabria) for making the characters and fun story that saved me. i hope they come back, but if not i'm glad they came into my life and they will always hold a special spot in my heart.

I think the most upsetting thing about being a recovering addict is seeing how other people talk about addicts. A vast majority of Americans fucking DESPISE addicts and they are constantly demonized at every turn, God forbid that addict is homeless. It's honestly shocking to see how fast addicts are brought up as a "gotcha" to shoot down arguments for social or housing programs.

Like damn, I'm already dealing with trying not to abuse this substance and getting my life together, which is hard enough on its own, I don't need the knowledge that the average person thinks I am the scum of the Earth. I don't like knowing that if I am ever homeless or in a tough living situation, I will be one of the first people thrown under the bus. I'm already going through enough, I'm already the victim of a very upsetting illness, I don't need to deal with the vile hatred of the average person in my country, too.

#simon says #i wanted to vent because i saw a post talking about 'i would rather help everyone. even addicts too' and I was so upset #like that is such an odd thing to clarify but also they had to because you just KNOW if you dont it'll be assumed they're excluded #or people will write comments wanting to exclude them #and it's so fucking sad and upsetting #ill see posts saying to make things better for homeless people and a majority of the comments are arguing because addicts are mean #'oh they dont wanna get better' if I was homeless my sobriety would be the first thing out the window #it's just so upsetting to see and hear nearly every other day #like im suffering from a mental illness that makes me crave and want to actively abuse substances that harm me #and im the bad guy here???#im the bad one for destroying my body because my actual brain demands it??#fuck you.

with the new year comes some little bits of housekeeping, and it's mainly how i plan to approach interactions moving forward. the plain and unfortunate truth is i suck at keeping up with messages. it's easier the closer i feel to someone, but i can still get easily overwhelmed. i'm still forgetful, both with messages and interaction calls. so this year, i'm going to do my best to act in accordance to my strengths and stop pushing myself to do something that i simply don't have the mental energy to do constantly.

what does this mean? well, i won't be making plotting calls going forward; instead, i plan to make lists of plots for each muse as well as general plots/dynamics i want, and i'll approach you if you like one of these posts. this should make dynamics easier to develop since we'll already have a starting place. i will also occasionally reblog a plotting meme of some sort, so if you want a more personalized idea from me, those will be the way to go. i probably won't like plotting calls myself unless i have a pretty solid idea in mind.

when i make starter/inbox calls, i'm going to start placing a cap on them so that i don't bite off more than i can chew. if i get through that initial cap, i might raise it if i still feel good enough to do more, but if i don't, it's okay bc i guarantee i'll make another interaction call before long! i just need to start doing this bc i honestly forget what i owe within a few days if i get busy.

and i want to be honest -- the little interactions make me more comfortable around my mutuals and more likely to pursue interactions. liking my headcanons/ooc posts/etc., commenting on posts, and sending in memes ( ic or ooc ) show me you do have an interest in what i have to offer. i understand reaching out is nerve-wracking bc i get nervous, too, but reaching out can be something as small as liking a post. and this is just a general note in regards to my own comfort that i might put in my rules! i guess what i'm saying is, if you're having a hard time approaching me, just a little interaction will help me bridge the gap, if that makes sense. if both of us feel shy but at least one of us reaches out even in a small way, we can make a connection over time!

i think that's it for the time being! i promise i'll be doing my best to show my interest even when it's hard for me to talk, and i hope these changes make it easier to connect <3

#i'm not reading that back again bc i really am feeling like a lil deflated balloon and it's only 9 o'clock here asdfg #i've been thinking about this for a minute though bc really #i keep trying to be good at messages and keeping track of interaction calls and rather than stressing myself out #i'm just going to do what i know will work better for me bc it'll then work better for y'all in the long run too #i might add all of this into my rules later but for now i'm gonna drink some water and take a minute bc a headache is trying to come for me #and just!! sorry to everyone i've ever forgotten about when it comes to interaction calls!!#and i'm sorry to everyone i've ever forgotten to message back!!#i never meant to be this way and you're wonderful!! i just got a bad brain you see :' )#get ready to ramble | ooc

if one more Thing Happens i swear to god i'm going to distort

#ramblings #tag wall ahead ->#why is. why is it [vaguely gestures; sobbing] why is it #why are the people who care the most the ones who can do the least. why are the people who can make things right never the ones who want to #oh Mili & KIHOW - In Hell We Live‚ Lament we're really in it now #why can so few good things come without the suffering of others. is everyone just used to this. for the love of god can anyone hear me #the nectar of morality burns my throat; my heart holds enough love to be broken yet not enough to repair itself #why am i so fragile as to break at even trying to make anything better #what is there left to do even #i just want to live. i want to survive and i want everyone else to be able to live alongside me. is that too much to ask #is it too much to want the happiness of my life to not come at the cost of someone else's #i want to tell myself it'll be okay but i really don't know if it will be #please save me fearlessness to keep on living. please

did EVERYONE but me go to that tamino concert

#my curiosity about concerts vs my fear of crowds and noises: fight #i guess there could be things to do to make it easier. like wearing headphones and such.#but it's too risky to try that for the first time with so many people around #if i panic in a crowd it'll be awful for everyone i'm sure #maybe a smaller venue or an open venue would be a better experiment for me

Hey does any queer person who has/had evangelical parents, and you like came out to them, and even if they weren't super accepting at first they eventually came around to it, have any tips on how to go about coming out while still maintaining that relationship?

I am NOT looking for ppl to tell me to just go no contact with my parents and cut them off completely. Trust me I have thought about it and I will if I absolutely have to, but I would prefer not to if at all possible. But there's nuance to this situation and I don't think my parents are Complete lost causes.

Also if you are Christian/Evangelical and you try to proselytize to me on this post I will immediately block you. I do not want to deal with people telling me my lifestyle is sinful. I grew up with that rhetoric and I am not looking to debate it with anyone but my parents right now.

#queer #lgbt #exvangelical #ex christian #ramblings of an arrow #looking for advice/shared experience #I'm not gonna come out Soon Soon but I am thinking about it more #and I had a ??? decent conversation with my mom yesterday where she apologized about some things from my childhood #and she seems more willing to listen to me talk about how my childhood wasn't perfect #and admit that she played a part in that #so I'd like to be able to extend an olive branch y'know?#especially b/c like I can see how my parents are broken and fucked up people too #and I'd like to help them heal #I RECOGNIZE THAT THIS ISN'T MY RESPONSIBILITY OKAY I DO RECOGNIZE THAT #I just think overall it'll be healthier and better for everyone if I at least try #and will cause more strife for Everyone overall if I just slam the door in their faces

an irl told me two months ago that leonave is like the st ship steddie but in a more ‘unhinged, enemies to lovers, with theater kids’ way, and I’ve not been able to fully stop thinking abt that ever since, so here I am ready to see if she’s got a point or not by watching some steddie scenes

#st fans if this post ends up in the st tags just ignore pls and ty 😭#anyway #i stg if she's right im gonna lose my shit #though based on what i know i can kinda see it #she had the gall to say enemies to lovers too. and actually have a point abt it #if its true watch me make a oneshot fic featuring leonave and st vibes #gonna be putting a huge disclaimer if i do saying i havent even properly watched the show lmao #it'll prob be a huge mess. you guys better hope i think she's wrong bc if not everyone's got a storm coming hfjfhg #/hj #td leonard #td dave #leonave #total drama #kit stuff #noahtally-famous #kit speaks

ok tumblr really *has* broken my speaking mannerisms, at work I found two cup lids that had melted together inseparably and muttered "this, too, is yuri" as if that's a normal thing to say on a sunday morning

#life update i am tired and so is everyone else #my sister went to the ER last night for chest pain (she's ok it seems though still not great)#work's had the busiest week of sales ive seen thanks to march madness but we're short staffed #two of my coworkers were arrested this week and one went home after a mental breakdown #and tomorrow after the sun goes out for a bit we're gonna service everyone wanting food for the mm finale #might end up working overtime for a third day though i feel like it'll cancel out w the hours i missed this morning #when i was too nauseous to work due to all the painkillers i took last on an empty stomach last week #but honestly im doing ok i just want a fucking break and so does everyone else i know it seems #feels weird venting here but i guess it's better than silence #and at least i have weird events to explain my inactivity instead of 'idk brain bad :/' like before

ok I know I'm already in the process of writing an extremely long video game retelling/au where the protag is a nonhuman who gets suddenly and unwillingly put in a situation where they have to pass as A Normal Guy by the threat of harm/death while also being put into a role where they're the Only One capable of saving the world. but what if I started a DIFFERENT one too

#howling #specifically I've been tossing around this bg3 scenario #where the dark urge and some random druid (specifically a circle of spores druid) are on the nautaloid when it gets attacked #the druid dies badly and the symbiotic entity they're carrying gets kicked out of their host #and so it attaches itself to the nearest living thing as like a self-preservation measure #which happens to be a VERY lobotomized dark urge #as in 'practically brain dead'#and so the entity is now stuck in a new body they have to figure out how to pilot COMPLETELY ALONE #other than the extremely unhelpful passenger already in this fucker's brain (the tadpole)#and still has the dark urge instincts and. well. urges. but they have even LESS access to memories than normal durge has #so it now has to both convince their friends AND their enemies that yes they definitely are a humanoid guy with a past #and not a cloud of sentient fungus puppeting a sort-of corpse #idk I just really love the idea of everyone being like 'wow it's so fucked up that we have parasites in our brains threatening to take over #and this guy is just like. oh hahah yeah (<- is a parasite who took over a guys brain)#anyways. id still be writing history offers preservation but id just ALSO be doing this too #like. idk maybe it'll help my writers block if I can mix shit up a bit #use scrapped ideas for one that might work better for the other y'know #this also isn't like. a guaranteed thing btw. I've just been rotating this concept in my brain for a bit now

Do you think we'll actually win tho. Like do you really believe this team has a chance or.

I think sport is the easiest, safest way to practice the vertue of relentless optimism because it bears little to no consequence if few boxes are checked. Said boxes to be checked are: has this club alrady smashed your hopes and dreams before? If no, best not hope cause the fall is higher than Barça's debt. If yes, wooo, then it's pessimism out. Pessimism and realism only wish it had the sheer tomfoolery of optimism. Optimism in sport is silly and so funny, even more so when your team has actually already faced tremendous defeats in the past. You think Napoli-Barça can hit me worse than corner taken quickly? You think Napoli-Barça can have me shout STOP THE COUNT before it gets to 8-2? Post-remontada disappointment, Neymar se queda, Liverpool, Bayern, Roma, 2019 UCL run, Messi leaving, mate that club has smashed my optimistic virginity more times than I can count. Boludo I'm NUMB. It's routine by now. I might as well have fun with it. I think we'll win, I think I'm gonna have the time of my life and if we don't eh so what? We'll go for a next round next year. The more we wait for it the more ecsatically beautiful our celebrations will be of it.

#anon ask #waiting is awful but it's the condition upon which you watch this sport and it's precisely what makes winning so liberating.#like do you recall the insanity when we won the league after 3 years without winning it.#waving flags pride everywhere bus parades for hours everyone ecstatic for a wait of THREE YEARS #some clubs don't see their league's top 10 in their whole history!#we're insanely privileged to be able to parade our “financial/institutional” problems around while remaining in top 5 of the league #with top mediatic attention top players and contention to all the big trophies #you saw the celebration argentina did when we won the world cup after decades of it too #we'll get better and when we win it it'll be so worth it. and then it'll go back to being awful etc.#cycle of sport baby we ain't special every single sport fan goes through it 👍
